Life on the Farm
bjrogg:
Been busy. Got straw off and stored away. Lots of work in shop. We had to do some serious rebuilding of our track frames on our carts. I didn’t get pictures. My hands were to greasy to touch my phone most of the time. It’s was a big job but it’s almost done now.
The first edible beans we planted are starting to turn yellow. Beans are developing in pods. Some white mold. Hopefully it doesn’t get out of control. Nothing I can do about it now.

My son was on a much deserved vacation and I took care of his cattle.

The weather has been very comfortable here this summer. I have been taking as many opportunities to spend time at our beach as possible.
My cousin started steps with a couple pieces of firewood he partially buried. They worked pretty good and I got the bug to modify them after he left.
I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Much easier than climbing the sugary sand.
I call it my retirement plan. Gotta make it work for us old farts.
I doubt it last many years with the way the lake is always changing. It’s all just natural materials collected on site. Some firewood and pee stone. If the lake washes it away it would be pretty easy to rebuild

My pickup and picnic tables are on what was once the original Old Shore Road. When I was a kid in high school I remember still being able to drive some abandoned sections of the old road. Some sections are still maintained. The new road is a little further away from the lake leaving me a nice little spot. It connects with sections of the old road in several places.
Here’s my cousin and myself’s combined efforts at making life easier for us old farts
